  1. Back on topic…. The bulldogs may look like a running team based on the box score stats, but when you hive off the cupcake games and really focus on AzSt, Tenn, Aggy and our common opponent in Florida, it tells a different story. Of those four games, they averaged 230 ypg passing and 122 ypg rushing. And those stats are against three average defenses and one bad, bad defense. On defense, the dogs allowed some eye popping rushing yards to Aggy and AzSt. And gave up 213 rushing ypg on average in those four games. Removing our cupcakes, and looking at only OhSt, OU, KY and of course Florida, our defense gave up an average of 223 and 105 ypg, respectively. We have had a much higher defensive beta to the standard deviation of course. What’s most telling of this cherry-picking approach is the TO battle. Where the bulldogs have given up the ball twice as many times as we have (6-3), but have also forced two more than our defense has (8-6) in the same games. TLDR: The teams are actually well matched on defense, despite how elite we want to believe our defense is (and exactly the same results against Florida). And they aren’t really a running team. This will very likely come down to the TOs in the box score. And if any one (or more) of our RBs can find space (despite our OL), we can win this game running (pun intended).
  2. My second daughter asking me thoughts around attending SMU with her older sister pretty much satisfied any Lambo itch I may have had.
  3. Children is your answer.
  4. SI revenge may be the most fun I’ve ever had in golf. The pin placements are quite creative.
  5. At least it has a generous amount of torque for all the moms that will take this off road where it belongs.
  6. At a “monstrous” 350 hp, that blown 6 has more power than the previous 8. Which is laughable on every level.
  7. Lack of obsession noted. I wish I had the same lack of obsession to buy a boring Urus.
  8. I had to make “chili” been and beef stew to please the wife. That said, I refuse to use chili powder so I made it the same way I’d make real Texas chili, then added beans. I’m not giving up the war, just the battle. Fuck to the yes
  9. I guess all gas, no brakes
  10. But since you raised it, stitzel was a motherfucking Rembrandt. And they drew a penis on it.
  11. It makes a difference in so far as the Japanese could take their chips home and bye bye mash bill #2. Just like every other owner of bourbon. Will they? Doubtful. But most folks not close to the business simply don’t know that the Blanton they drink isn’t BT. Or Sazerac since you want to be so specifically accurate.
  12. And im reminded of the teaching opportunity that Buffalo Trace has zero ownership of mashbill #2 and all of its expressions.
  13. Not a bad expression (albeit young) of the mashbill #2. You really ought to try Tom Moore BiB out of Barton. It’s a damn steal at less than half the price you paid, and quite the sipper when not mixing. It’s probably a year older than AAA (has to be at least 4 as a BiB)
  14. Further proof that BMW is undefeated.
  15. Just a horrible at bat by Diaz
  16. I’d rate WJ lucky 13 around a 6.5-7. Worth a try. Just can’t get over the price tag.
  17. The old 13s were pure MGP. Single barrel 13s are still MGP. But agree on everything g you just said. I don’t get much of any dickel. Must be the smallest percentage of the blend.
  18. I know we can argue conditioning coaches bear some blame. Some pretty sketchy moves back prematurely by staff, likely. And some clear lack of depth to prevent a collapse upon injuries maybe stems some of the damage, but still.
  19. There are not two teams with two managers dealt more injuries that fucked the 2025 campaign than O’s and Stros.
  20. Astros are set up to make it. There’s nothing but themselves in the way with the easiest six game stretch of all the contenders. So, see you in the offseason thread.
  21. A man after my own. My wife refers to braising as “wet meat” and won’t eat it. So I cook tons of wet meat on her girl trips.
  22. You be accurate on one part of that prediction. I fear you may be off on the other.
  23. Another one score loss. So it’s up to three
